Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] japspeed exhaust
Thanks for the help.
I got it back up on ramps today.
The exhaust was touching the crossmember.
Heat gun, hammer and a slight tweek of the bracket.
Sorted.
Sounds awesome now

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Twitchy Rear End
It could be one of many things... or a combination. Worn or failed parts, geo set up, those in conjunction with poor rubber, etc etc. Where are you? I'd get it to a decent garage/affiliate for a check over and from there to a decent alignment centre. R. i have changed to poly bushes on the rear end...

I had the same problem, i ended taking off the sump and jamming the crank, bit extreme, but it worked.

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Twitchy Rear End
Ok, Thanks, so what does that mean.
do i just need to take it and get four wheel tracking set up.
Or is it more complicated than that.
Is it a problem that you have experience with or an educated guess.

Re: [Mk2] [NA] Only in the wet - Gurgling Noise (Not coolent to my knowledge)
Hi All, Recently bought a 1991 Uk MR2 Coupe. Working through the many problems. This one only ever occures in the wet (raining). It sounds the same as if you put your head next to a drain pipe and heard the gurgling water noise. It sounds like its coming from the rear vents (if you looked on the ou...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Turbo shaft????
Does the shaft you're watching include the compressor and exhaust wheels? I would've thought it were just a shaft... You could do worse than to contact Bob: http://www.imoc.co.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?t=123526 it does include the wheels, item number 150424755380, Sorry i dont know how to add a link....
